Sangalli: catch without biting, serves IRPEF reform – Il Sole 24 Ore

ROME

He talks about a recovery “without stain and without intensity, still too fluctuating signals on consumption which temper the enthusiasm of those who have recently highlighted the re-start of the domestic demand. Listen to the audience to whistle the prime minister on the bonus of 80 € and applaud him in the passage, just mentioned actually, on the stop to the increase in VAT. Carlo Sangalli, President of Confcommercio, once again puts the focus of its annual report on the subject of taxation, with a clear caution on the recovery underway. “It’s still not biting – he says – never jumps the fault, the crevasse between stagnation and growth.”

Sangalli acknowledges “the progress moved on taxation by the government,” but it’s interventions “risk being less effective in the perspective of long-lena growth.” The number one of Confcommercio calls “an organic vision of the tax authorities ‘, which starts Irpef, a reform that includes a few tax rates and the introduction of a’ no tax area” equal for all workers, “whether they are employees or self-employed” . But the most urgent issue, one that evokes Sangalli as “indispensable for the growth” on which summon Renzi, is the sterilization of the safeguard clauses in 2017, “so do not touch the VAT”.

the operation tax, presses Sangalli, however, should be accompanied interventions in other sectors, without which the change of pace you will not see. The infrastructure for example. “It would be enough to improve the accessibility of our only 5% of the regions to have an increase in GDP of 24 billion euro.” The labor market does not lack appreciation but even new tips. “The Government has taken important initiatives in the short term, since the incentives for new hires. But also they serve structural interventions. You must act, for example, on Inail and on INPS contributions rates that cost to the tertiary businesses over 2 billion annually in more than they should. ” And then, another question on a permanent search of a winning recipe, lending to small businesses. Sangalli here implicates the Central Guarantee Fund, which over time – he says – has turned into a state instrument that rivals ‘home’ for the trust rather than support them.
